This International Workshop is focused on the study of violence against women during the Early Modern period. It is linked to the Master in Specialized Studies of the Early Modern Period “Spanish Monarchy, XVI-XVIII centuries”, imparted by the department of Early Modern History of the Universidad Autonoma of Madrid. This workshop will analyse the historical roots of the violence against women and the effect of the patriarchal system on the Early Modern societies, a topic that is not a novelty, but that is extremely current nowadays. In this sense, it will try to bring together those fields that use categories linked to the gender studies and the historical analysis, to examine considerations related to violence against women in its broader sense, to try to understand and give visibility to this catastrophic social evil.
Organized by: Prof. Margarita Eva Rodríguez García, Prof. Ignacio Atienza Hernández, Florencia Machado Pavoni, Isabel Gómez Capitan, Helena Guillén Hernando, Lorenzo Scalone.
Guest Speakers: Dr. Pilar Pérez Cantó, Dr. Maria Luisa Candau, Dr. Antonio Gil Ambrona, Dr. Francisco Ledesma Gámez.
